    So I made this star trek inspired render... wasn't sure where to share it but this thread seemed as good as any. Hope you like it.

    i really like this render but i do have a few questions . is this figure romulan of vulcan , the tactical combat suit feels romulan as does the assault rifle , however the lack of expression on his face reads as vulcan . it is a wonderful render but it feels slightly unfinished ti me becouse there is very little to tell me who this guy is

    Thank you for the comment. I agree, I should have established some context. I posted this image on another site and here is a better explanation that I provided there:

    It is a render inspired by the Vulcans in Star Trek. They are one of my favorite sci-fi species because they overcame their violent nature in favor of logic and reason. That triumph can only go so far, though, as they exist in a universe full of very real threats and danger.

    I have titled this render "In the Pale Moonlight," which is taken from the name of a very good episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, which in turn was a reference to a quote by the Joker in Batman (1989): "You ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?" In that episode, the protagonist must betray his personal ideals for a greater good.

    Violence is the antitheses of Vulcan evolution, and yet here we see a Vulcan soldier, armed and apparently deployed to some hostile planet.

    It has been a while since I have posted anything. I just bought Rduda's Battle Bridge and modified it for a story of mine set in the 23rd Century. There is not a lot of TMP love here so I thought I would post it

    DA. He's on there often or the TrekBBS.

    I tried DA- even posted on one of his pics. Got nothing back so far- from either one.

    last time I spoke with him, he came online and post a reply to a question late at night, my time. (aka 10m Pacific.) so if you hang around till 1am your time you might get a response.

    Looks real good,

    But if I may make one suggestion, add a cotton based bump map to the uniform, or if there is one, increase the % or +/- on the settings.

    ~~~~~~

    All,

    On an unrelated matter, I'm looking for feed back or what to make better in the coming graphic novels for the Mirror Universe. Lighting, pose, poke through I may have missed, small details that are easily over looked.

    If you noted at the back of the novel there is a time line. As of right now there are 7 more Mini-graphic novels planned. Mini being 12-20 pages long in the same format of 1 to 2 images per page. Scripts and story format are already laid out. I'm looking for graphic image look....and yes Madison, most of us know you don't like the diorama look, but that going to stay.

    So everyone, be brutal. Unlike many in the art community I have thick skin. With out critisim I'm not going to know what I need to do to push the envelope to make things better or more enjoyable. You can post your opinion here or if you don't want people to know what you said out of the fact someone might flame spray you, send me a PM or a note over at DA.

    Thanks gang.

    My objective is to get as many of these mini stories out as possible before I transfer to my new job. If certified and fully qualified, one of new jobs will possibly be of me as the ship's safety officer for the dismantle and deconstruction of the USS Enterprise when it comes to the shipyard here in Bremerton. Time will tell.
